Disclosed is a vehicle air conditioning device, which is an air conditioning device using an integrated heat pump system, and in which left and right independent air conditionings can be implemented in a simple structure such that the left and right air volumes may be automatically controlled, the ability to mix hot and cold air is improved, and sufficient space can be secured inside a vehicle.

Heat flow management device for motor vehicles has a refrigerant circulation, a power train coolant circulation and a heating line heat carrier circulation. The refrigerant circulation includes a compressor, an indirect condenser, an expansion element, an ambient heat exchanger, an evaporator and a chiller. The power train coolant circulation includes a coolant pump, the chiller, an electric motor heat exchanger and a power train coolant radiator, wherein the heating line heat carrier circulation comprises a coolant pump, the indirect condenser and a heating heat exchanger, wherein the refrigerant circulation and the power train coolant circulation are directly thermally coupled with one another across the chiller. Refrigerant circulation and heating line heat carrier circulation are directly thermally coupled with one another across the indirect condenser. Power train coolant circulation and the heating line heat carrier circulation are only indirectly thermally coupled with one another across the refrigerant circulation.

A refrigerant heat exchanger including a first group of heat exchange tubes on a first side of a core defining a first zone. A second group of heat exchange tubes on a second side of the core define a second zone. An inlet tank is at the inlet end of the core. An inlet port of the inlet tank is opposite to, or generally opposite to, an interface between the first zone and the second zone. A first outlet tank is at the outlet end of the core opposite to the first zone. A first outlet port of the first outlet tank is at an outer end of the first outlet tank. A second outlet tank is at the outlet end of the core opposite to the second zone. A second outlet port of the second outlet tank is at an outer end of the second outlet tank.

An air conditioner includes a first inlet-side inside/outside air switching part, a first outlet-side outside/inside air switching part, a second inlet-side inside/outside air switching part and a second outlet-side inside/outside air switching part. In a dehumidifying heating mode, the first outlet-side inside/outside air switching part makes a switch to a ventilation path that guides air having passed through a first heat exchange part into a space to be air-conditioned, and the second inlet-side inside/outside air switching part makes a switch to a ventilation path that guides outside air to a second heat exchange part. In a defrosting mode, the second inlet-side inside/outside air switching part makes a switch to a ventilation path that guides inside air to the second heat exchange part, and a flow rate of refrigerant flowing through the second heat exchange part is reduced more than in the dehumidifying heating mode.

Disclosed is a vehicle air conditioning device, which is an air conditioning device using an integrated heat pump system, and in which left and right independent air conditionings can be implemented in a simple structure such that the left and right air volumes may be automatically controlled, the ability to mix hot and cold air is improved, and sufficient space can be secured inside a vehicle.

An air conditioner includes a blower unit, a blowing duct, and an air switching portion. The blower unit is configured to blow cold air and warm air simultaneously. The blowing duct includes a target blowing portion through which air is sent to a space that is an air-conditioning target, and a non-target blowing portion through which the air is sent to a space that is not an air-conditioning target. The air switching portion is configured to switch between a cold air supply state in which the cold air is sent to the target blowing portion while the warm air is sent to the non-target blowing portion, and a warm air supply state in which the warm air is sent to the target blowing portion while the cold air is sent to the non-target blowing portion.

A cooling system (10) for a motor vehicle has an air system that fluidically connects a plurality of coolers (12) for supplying the coolers (12) with cooling air (16). An air fan is arranged fluidically in the air system for conveying the cooling air (16) to the coolers (12). Valves are arranged fluidically in the air system upstream of the coolers (12), for blocking the cooling air (16) conveyed to the respective cooler (12).

Proposed are an air conditioner having an integrated heat exchanger and an air conditioning system using the integrated heat exchanger. The integrated heat exchanger enables heat exchange between cooling water and conditioning-air, and generates heating air or cooling air such that cooling/heating efficiency is improved. Further, since the temperature of the cooling water circulating in the integrated heat exchanger is adjusted, there is no temperature adjustment door for adjusting the temperature of conditioning-air, so the number of parts is reduced. Further, since the integrated heat exchanger is applied, components are optimally arranged and the entire package is reduced in size.

An air conditioner apparatus for electric vehicles includes: an air conditioning case installed under an under body of a vehicle, and configured to communicate with an interior of the vehicle through an outlet formed through an upper portion of the air conditioning case and circulate conditioned air therein; an HVAC module provided inside the air conditioning case, and configured to adjust temperatures of indoor air and outdoor air and to provide the conditioned air to the interior of the vehicle; and a heat exchange module provided below the HVAC module inside the air conditioning case and configured to exchange heat with the HVAC module depending on whether or not the HVAC module performs a heating or cooling operation.

An air-handling system for a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system of a passenger vehicle is provided that includes a heated air conduit configured to receive a portion of a heated air flow from a heat exchanger in a conditioning section and directly deliver the portion of the heated air flow to a vent in the passenger vehicle. The portion of the heated air flow is separate from an unconditioned air flow, a conditioned air flow, and a remainder of the heated air flow, each of which run from the conditioning section to a common mixing section forming an output air flow. The delivery section distributes the output air flow to a plurality of conduits leading to a plurality of vents in the passenger vehicle.
